THIS IS DW RHODES

Humorist DW Rhodes, AKA Dave, is the author of numerous books that haven’t yet been written.

He was once kidnapped by aliens but they threw him back.

If you were to know him in real life, as some people do, you too would chalk his behavior up to the implants the aliens left in his skull.

Over the years Dave has served as a sailor in the United States Navy, a store clerk, security guard, broadcast board operator and producer, professional mime, disc jockey, theatrical sound designer and stage actor, security supervisor in Hollywood, Hollywood extra in film and television, night watchman at an RV dealership, hotel security, and currently as a tour guide in the great city of San Francisco.

Yes, he’s exhausted but he stills finds the time to write strange things.

Dave lives in San Francisco with Mrs. Dave and two cats, in that order. The cats have equal billing, because, hey, CATS.

Mrs. Dave goes by “coffeesister” online, but also “Dorian Dorey” if you prefer. She writes some pretty awesome poetry under that name, which you can find on her blog PURPLE POETESS, and her TWITTER.

Dave also conducts walking tours of the Chinatown, Barbary Coast and North Beach neighborhoods of San Francisco. If you’d like to book a bus tour or walking tour of this awesomely weird city while visiting, or if you’re a local and just want to learn something that you probably didn’t know before, contact Dave by using the form at the bottom of this page.

Dave has every intention of getting some books out, as the years wane and the sun sets on his youth. Writing this blog is a part of working toward that goal, so this is a good place to follow DW Rhodes as an author and keep up on book releases, notes, and all of that fun stuff.
